Weekend Video

The art of the raconteur is not much in evidence these days, but every once in a while you stumble across a great story teller. I was watching David Letterman last month when his guest was Zach Braff and I thought he was so charming and funny and self-deprecatory that without knowing much about him or having seen his movie or t.v. show, I became a fan based solely on this.

I love Zach Braff too and could just devour him whole in Garden State. BUT- to fly all the way to vegas and back just for the sake of his own hedonistic pleasure, does nobody else question this?? I mean in this day and age, to burn fossil fuels for the fun of it is extremely irresponsible, no matter how cute your ass looks in jeans.

"If only all blogs were as life-affirming and tender-hearted as that of gallerist James Danziger. Whether his focus falls on the work of an individual artist or a particular theme, The Year in Pictures is compulsive reading."
